Abstract
This paper horizontally explores the spheres of poetry and technology. It also works to find new interfaces of YouTube videos and canonical poetics: the conjunctions between Yi Yooksa’s “Green Grapes” (1939) and William Wordsworth’s Preface to Lyrical Ballads (1802); an A* commercial and Walt Whitman’s “Preface to Leaves of Grass” (1855); and a scene from the movie entitled Artificial Intelligence: AI (2001) and T.S. Eliot’s “Tradition and the Individual Talent” (1919). The combinational reading on YouTube and poetic theories are discussed as a key-concept that integrates heterogeneities to link worlds otherwise considered incommensurate. The multidisciplinary discussions in this paper suggest that the comparative case studies bear a claim to argue plenty of possibilities for the ordinary reader or audience to be a significant online critic. Most importantly, it suggests a new way to contribute to the poetry and popular culture study education to rediscover the dynamic representations of humanities in the digital era.
